3.02 Where an Employer wishes to hire additional labourer(s), the
Employer shall contact the Local 506 Union Hall to request the referral of
such labourer(s). At the time of placing the request, the Employer shall
be entitled to name one-half of the number of labourers requested,
subject to the following conditions:
(a) the labourer(s) requested is a member(s) in good standing of
Local 506;
(b) the member is unemployed as a result of voluntary
termination and has been registered on the out-of-work list for two (2)
weeks or more;
(c) where the Employer requests an odd number of labourer(s),
the odd numbered labourer(s) may be named by the Employer only with
the consent of the Union.
Such consent will not be unreasonably denied.
For purposes of clarity and by way of example, if the Employer
requests one labourer, the Employer may name the labourer subject to the
consent of the Union as noted above. If the Employer requests three (3)
labourers, the first shall be named and referred by the Union, the second
named by the Employer and the third named by the Employer, again
subject to the consent of the Union as noted above.
(d) The Employer will do everything possible to ensure that layoffs
are not used to abuse the fifty (50%) name hire right. When layoffs occur
the Employer shall endeavour to layoff in the same 50% ratio that was
used during hiring, provided the employee is competent and capable of
performing the work.
3.03 The Employer may, subject to the provisions of Article 12
(Business Representatives, Stewards), Section 12.03 of the Master
Portion, transfer employees presently in their employment from one
